What a great pic.

This has to be the pest picture of E3.

 

[SturokBGD]

XCom x Freedom Force x Advance Wars guitars? <3

That Miyamoto pic is great.

So you gain steam back by moving back to where you were but you can still pick up items while you are moving even if you don't commit?

Where is the risk in moving then?

If the enemy detects you your movement is locked. So if the enemy has maybe spotters your movement becomes very limited

 

[scy]

It's rough watching them go through this far slower than it seems like they need to be going through it :|

 

[HawthorneKitty]

Cool
I know I'll be that happy if I met Mario creator back in the day

Damn, I'd still be that happy today.

 

[Incitemaybe]

I'm liking what I'm seeing of project Steam

If enemies intercept you that locks you in.

 

[Takeda Kenshi]

My favorite part about this reveal is the fact that it can only get better when it releases.

 

[dragonlife]

Man, this looks so goooood. I'm glad it's more colorful than I was expecting.

I like everything I've seen.

 

[Air Zombie Meat]

I think it looks kind of ugly (mainly the style) but I'm definitely interested.

 

[ryushe]

Wait, this is Intelligent Systems take on XCOM?

Oh God.

Oh God.

Oh God.

OhGodOhGodOhGodOhGodOhGodOhGodOhGodOhGodOhGod!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Valjean Lafitte]

I don't think the character design itself is bad (just the graphics), but it's really not evoking the Jack Kirby look they think it is.

Cant i always move to the edge of my range in all directions and then collect items and them commit to the place i want to move.

If an enem sees you then you get locked in. I'm sure the good items will have enemies around it.

 

[MThanded]

oh ok

 

[ShadowElliot]

Henry just used an Eaglerang.

 

[Koko]

USA! USA!

 

[StrikerObi]

LOL at that awesome Star Spangled Banner guitar riff.

 

[jgwhiteus]

I'm not a fan of the art-style either - heavy outlines and comics fonts remind me too much of some DS games, and the cut-scenes didn't impress for something that's going to be released three years after the 3DS was introduced - but I generally love strategy games made by Int. Sys., and I was also a fan of Valkyria Chronicles, so I'll probably give this one a chance. I might wait for some reviews, though, since right now the introduction of characters / plot aren't grabbing me either (I do appreciate the originality though).

 

[Maintenance]

What did I miss about codename STEAM so far?

I think the framerate is looking kinda iffy...

 

[big_erk]

What a great pic.

Bah, Miyamoto making kids smile. What is he thinking. He needs to be making mature games or going third party or doing something productive.

 

[DXLelouch153]

OMG EAGLE BATARANG

 

[KarmaCow]

Yea that's where I'm at. I prefer turn based type games on the 3DS.

 

[RichardKSJ]

Yeah this is looking really fun definitely getting this next year.

I can't say I'm overly fond of the art style but it's not like it's horrible looking. That would never be a reason to not get a game anyway (for me anyway).

 

[Riposte]

I think they said in a comparison to VC, they will focus on more on the shooting mechanics, right? IDK, this seems more strategic than action so the shooting seems less like a shooter than VC.

I guess enemy overwatch? Could end your turn or limit your steam use.

 

[JetBlackPanda]

lol omg star bangled banner rock???

lol

 

[Jaded Alyx]

Anyone know what's up next?

 

[CrimsonCommie]

What a great pic.

Those kids are way calmer than I would be.

 

[Madouu]

They just called it Overwatch, isn't that what XCOM called it?

It's a mechanic present in a lot of games and video games. I think the gameplay is very interesting, you've got the classic staples of the genre (AP, Overwatch, different units with different abilities) and cool things like the fact that there is no overhead camera view.

I do not like the audio so far though but after spending so much time on Xcom, I'm obviously sold on this.

you're watching a live stream

 

[Unlucky]

No word yet.

 

[Sendou]

oh ok

And the point is that unlike many similiar games there is no map so you can't really know where enemies might be hiding.

 

[Kinsei]

Specials can only be used once per mission. I can just imagine someone wasting them on a tough enemy, only to be ambushed by five of them later in the mission.

 

[JetBlackPanda]

game looks really really good in motion.

 

[Lernaean]

They have no idea who the old guy is, that's why.

[jman2050]

This game looks sick.

 

[Spinluck]

Sure, if you ignore the people who still don't like the art style, you know? The people who didn't dismiss the idea that the game could be fun, but thought that aesthetics were a bit on the weakside?

 

[Maintenance]

you're watching a live stream

I also watched Smash and Bayonetta through the same stream and both looked smooth as butter (even though initially I though Bayonetta was iffy too, but I changed my stream quality and it fixed. I tried the same thing this time but nothing happened).

 

[Qurupeke]

I think I like the strategy elements it has a lot. Hopefully there's a plethora of different characters like FE.

 

[DXLelouch153]

you people have been playing too many damn brown shooters
it looks fine

 

[daydream]

All these people talking about Freedom Force made me look it up..

..I totally played that game. :O

 

[Kater]

That Miyamoto pic is great. <3



Hm why? The artstyle in those portraits reminds me of something. Maybe a mix of Daigasso and Steamworld Dig?

Thought of Steamworld as well, even the colouring is similiar. (Well, I guess because gold/red is the go to colour if you want to get that Steam Punk look right)

Hope we get some gameplay without commentary at some point.

 

[Takeda Kenshi]

Gotta say, Henry REALLY reminds me of Simon Belmont from the Captain N series.

 

[SturokBGD]

Specials can only be used once per mission. I can just imagine someone wasting them on a tough enemy, only to be ambushed by five of them later in the mission.

Yeah, this is an Intelligent Systems game, it's 100% guaranteed.

 

[LOLDSFAN]

I'm assuming they have speakers and they have a mic next to the speakers. So much background noise.

 

[ShadowElliot]

If anyone has a problem, this game comes out in 2015. There will be more changes, but for now, this looks amazing!

 

[HawthorneKitty]

Lion is too stronk.
